I have been extremely fortunate to have used the contents of this book within the primary school I worked in. I have seen the children respond so well to this new and dynamic approach. The children and myself got so much from it!And as a huge bonus to both myself and the children – it was GREAT fun! Teaching staff, assistants in schools and nurseries are finding this book invaluable. It is a good idea which is fully resourced, simply produced, gives a terms worth of language work for the most needy pupils and above all is fun for both adults and children. How can it be so much fun and so effective at the same time? I’m just glad that it is! Fantastic resources – easy to use – my son loved them! Really good for enhancing curricular activities at home! Fun to do, easy to do …… one word…Superb and well recommended to anyone who wants to do their best for their kids! Very impressed with the book and also with the efficency and consdieration of those sending it…Pleasure to deal with many thanksxx Fit for purpose truly ideal, helps so much in planning one to one lessons for children with difficulties in grasping vie basics. Also very good for small group work. Spirals is a brilliant series of sessions which build confidence for children who are too shy or a have a language delay which prevents them joining in a register or circle time. Within six weeks I had two children, aged four, who hadn’t answered their names all year at register time, joining in with the spirals group and speaking to me.

Well worth buying and putting into practice with small groups of 6 to 8 linguistically vulnerable children. The positive effects spread into the classroom.
